Friday 03 October 2014 – Global specialist recruitment company, PageGroup, has recently been recognized in Crain’s New York Business the ‘2014 Best Places to Work in New York City’ for its eighth consecutive year. Crain’s New York Business awards were designed to identify, recognize and honor the best employers in New York City who profit the city’s economy, workforce and businesses. Richard Vickers, Regional Managing Director for PageGroup USA and Canada said: “I am absolutely thrilled that PageGroup has been named one of the best companies to work for in New York City for eight years in a row. The level of client and industry recognition associated with this accolade is a testament to the investment we’ve made on building an inclusive environment for people to thrive and develop their careers. “We believe strongly in organic growth and take pride in finding the highest calibre of people from a wide variety of backgrounds; so much so that when we recruit new consultants, we hope that one day they will be our future managers, directors and managing directors,” said Mr Vickers. Hundreds of New York-based companies entered Crain’s New York Business two-part survey process - the first part judged the company’s workplace, policies, procedures, philosophy, systems and demographics whilst the second part involved an employee survey to measure the employee experience. The combined scores determined the top companies and the final ranking with PageGroup receiving top scores for management, leadership and personal growth in the voting criteria. Mr Vickers added: “PageGroup launched its New York office in the Chrysler Building in 1997 and have since multiplied our staff headcount and expanded our American business to eight new locations. As a leading recruitment consultancy in niche markets, we are determined to develop our network of candidates in New York and build positive, sustainable client partnerships with the best opportunities and talent.” For more information on PageGroup New York, please visit: https://www.michaelpage.com/contact-us/new-yorkENDSNotes to editors:Media ContactSophie Tudor, Communications Executive, PageGroupE: sophietudor@michaelpage.com T: (+44) 203 077 8177Notes to editors:About PageGroup (www.page.com)PageGroup (formerly known as Michael Page International) is one of the world`s best-known and well-respected professional recruitment consultancies.
